Moderators:

Alan Langford, M.D.
David Eisner, M.D.
(UGA faculty members, previously in prior clinical practice of dermatology and anesthesiology)

Purpose:

To promote dialogue among UGA students, faculty and advisors in premedicine, pre-dentistry, pre-optometry, pre-podiatry, pharmacy and related fields involving patient care.
Topics:

Chosen by students present "the week before." Items discussed in past have included medical malpractice climate, managed care, distribution and payment of healthcare resources to the general population, genetic neurological diseases, respiratory intubation, specialty training for graduates of medical school, "end of life" issues, biomedical ethical issues and other possible topics that sometimes are discussed at medical school interviews.

Agenda: Most sessions begin with Question & Answer session, then comments are welcomed on upcoming extracurricular activities from any student and officers of UGA Premed organizations (AED, UGA Premed Club, AMSA, and MPSA/SNMA). Guest speakers will sometimes present.

Students interested in nursing and allied health disciplines are also invited. All UGA faculty and advisors are invited to attend and contribute. At times, the meetings will be 'switched' to other times to coincide with other AED/Premed activities.
